Attention to bearing storage

As long as the relative humidity of the storage room where the bearings are stored does not exceed 60% and the temperature changes little, the bearings can be stored in the original packaging for several years. Sealed bearings or bearings with dust covers, the lubrication characteristics of the grease filled in the bearings may be reduced after long-term storage. The storage room should also be protected from vibration and shaking. Bearings are not stored in the original packaging should be properly stored to prevent corrosion and contamination. Large sized rolling bearings can only be stored at flat place, and the sides of the inner and outer rings are best supported. If stored upright, and the inner, outer rings and rolling parts are heavier, walls of the inner and outer ring are relatively thin, that may cause permanent deformation of them.
